HBO, NFL Films, Skydance Sports and the New York Giants announce ‘Hard Knocks Offseason with the New York Giants’

HBO, NFL Films, Skydance Sports and the New York Giants are joining forces for “Hard Knocks: Offseason with the New York Giants,” a brand-new iteration of the groundbreaking franchise that will document the NFL offseason for the very first time. This was announced today by Casey Bloys, chairman and CEO, HBO and Max content, during the Warner Bros. Discovery Upfront presentation.

The five-part original series premieres Tuesday, July 2 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on HBO and will be available to stream on Max, with new episodes debuting subsequent Tuesdays through July 30.

“Hard Knocks: Offseason with the New York Giants” will bring viewers inside the New York Giants organization as the team prepares for their highly anticipated 100th season. Camera crews will chronicle the team’s every move as general manager Joe Schoen and other members of the team’s front office and staff navigate the critical offseason period from January to July 2024, from the NFL Scouting Combine to free agency, to the NFL Draft and team minicamps.

“We are incredibly proud that ‘Hard Knocks’ is widely thought of as one of the most successful and entertaining unscripted sports franchises ever produced,” said Ross Ketover, senior executive, NFL Films. “To be able to expand on the ‘Hard Knocks’ universe, and with an elite franchise in the Giants while they celebrate their 100th season, is a privilege for all of us at NFL Films.”

“We are beyond thrilled that the New York Giants have opened their doors to the ‘Hard Knocks’ cameras for the first time ever,” said Nancy Abraham and Lisa Heller, executive vice presidents, HBO Documentaries, and Bentley Weiner, vice president, HBO Sports Documentaries. “The NFL offseason is a fascinating period that we’ve always wanted to explore and we can’t wait to show football fans everywhere what NFL Films has been capturing behind the scenes at the team’s headquarters.”

“As we enter our 100th season, we look forward to providing our fans with the opportunity to see what it takes to build an NFL roster,” said Nilay Shah, senior vice president of marketing and brand strategy, New York Giants. “Beginning the moment the previous season ended, we gave NFL Films unprecedented access to this critical time of the year. We know viewers will gain insight from moments that have never been captured before and are excited for them to learn more about our Giants history.”

“Hard Knocks,” the recipient of 18 Sports Emmy Awards, has previously documented NFL training camps and the regular season. The longtime series is produced by the legendary team at NFL Films, a division of NFL Media owned and operated by the National Football League. Skydance Sports will be co-producing this all-new iteration, with Liev Schreiber narrating.
